About Us

Founded by moms and artists, Root & Wander is rooted in culture, nature and play based learning. We curate hands-on play experiences that spark curiosity, nurture empathy, and invite exploration of the world’s traditions and seasons.

Each monthly play kit offers more than activities—it’s a rhythm of discovery where children can:

• Celebrate global traditions, learning the beauty of cultures beyond their own.

• Reconnect with the earth, through planting, crafting, cooking, and seasonal exploration.

• Build empathy and imagination, encouraging connection and meaningful conversation.

• Develop fine motor skills the way humans always have— through tactile, screen-free play that shapes

  both mind, body and string communities.

Rooted in curiosity. Growing through play. Wandering toward a more connected, human future.

Root & Wander: Growing Global Hearts Through Play.

Our Promise

To ensure what we share is real, respectful, and alive with context, we center our Culture Panel—a circle of community voices, educators, artists, and tradition-bearers who guide our storytelling and activities.

Through consultative collaboration, our Culture Panel helps us:

• Honor the source of each tradition with care and accuracy.

• Elevate lived perspectives so culture isn’t reduced to crafts or costumes.

• Create with integrity, weaving play that fosters empathy, curiosity, and connection.

Our north star is simple: help children grow up grounded in curiosity and open to the world—equipped with values that last a lifetime.

Join us at the root. Wander with us into what childhood—and the world—can be.
